Last night i did something really not proud of... me and my partner got really drunk at a party and i walked off on way home and landed up being brought home by police as it was late and was walking by side of main road (we live near one). My partner fell asleep, and when police buzzed the flat he didnt answer so they landed up taking me to my parents house (where i still spend time when working in office near thetmre house) as he had my phone and keys to our flat. They told my dad they couldnt find my partner (he is fine was just asleep but they must have thought wandering around like me) but worrying like mad they will call his family who live nearby abd they will kick off at him. We all don’t get on, so it would be a disaster. If they were going to contact his parents would they have done it by now? Also, will the police come back to my house and charge me with anythibg or would they hace done it at time?

Not proud of what i did but scared now I might get charged with something or will get my partner into trouble with his parents. He is a vulnerable adult since a bad skiing accident left him with memory issues due to a brain injury.

This is something I'm really ashamed of so pls don't lecture me, my anxiety is off scale and i could not be more upset with myself but if police were going to contact his family or i have committed a crime by being drunk and them having to bring me home they would have done it by now right?

Sounds like the cops did a great job of keeping you safe.

What do you think you will get in trouble for? Your partner got home fine. You got home fine.

I know I keep telling myself this but I’m a born worrier and catastrophise 😞 Just worried as boyfriend is a vulnerable adult since the ski accident and don’t want this to come back and bite me if they say contact his parents or social services when it was a non thing in relation to him. I now realise they must have though he was wandering around too…

You're fine. You didn't commit an offence, they were just looking after you! They didn't arrest you and they would have no reason to come back.
Did they seem bothered about your partner at the time? If they were that worried they would have done something then. But it sounds like they were just concerned about your welfare and once you were home safe, they left.
I really see no reason why they would come back or contact his parents after the event.

My parents said they were asking about him saying they hadn’t been able to find him… my mum said she didn’t know about family when they asked about who he had (presumably to contact them) but he saw his parents this morn and they hadn’t been contacted and they would have called if they had been in touch since… not sure if police would go back to station and then look him up to find out about family and where they live

Perhaps if you’re worrying, contact the local police station and just get your partner to confirm he’s ok, just I case they do a welfare check on him as it does sound like they were doing a good job.

Don’t worry about this, but perhaps use as a lesson to not drink so much in the future especially if your partner has a brain injury might be better going zero alcohol x
